Milform E

Description

A hard but resilient thermoplastic box toe &  counter material which activates at a low temperature. MILFORM can either be softened by heating outside the shoe and inserting whilst soft, or inside the shoe on conventional backpart moulding machines. Milform remains soft for 2-3 minutes after heating, and therefore is less heat critical and easier to use than many other types of thermoplastic counters.

Material composition

A polymer core, with up to 46% recycled content, with two layers of woven scrim and an integral adhesive allowing bonding on both sides’’
